Paleo works thus far...

For the last week I have been rigorously following the Paleolithic diet. This equates to eating from four primary groups of food and forgoing the others. The groups of food I have to not eat from include the dairy, grain, and sugar groups. I have been strongly addicted to carbohydrates my entire life. I know that not eating carbs causes my waistline to shrink. By eliminating these groups of food I hope to tackle my carb addictions all at once rather than one at a time. Less than a week into the diet I have lost 6 pounds and don't feel the least bit deprived of food.
